“Felix.”

The man called Felix muttered softly.

“Felix, wake up!!”

Someone shook Felix's body. Feeling disturbed, Felix finally opened his eyes.

“Jane?”

Felix rubbed his eyes, clarifying his vision of someone who was teasing his sleep. A girl in a light purple pajama with a unraveling brown mane appeared before him. That girl is Jane. “What's up, Jane?”

“Aiden.”

Hearing Aiden's name, Felix immediately sat down. “What's with Aiden?”

“Aiden won't stop crying. Is he sick?” jane said with an anxious face.

At that moment Felix immediately got up and walked with wide steps to Aiden's room, followed by Jane behind him. As soon as he arrived, Felix immediately touched Aiden's forehead.

Felix breathed a sigh of relief. “Aiden is not sick. Maybe he's just hungry. She won't stop crying if you don't give her milk.”

“Hungary? But it's only three o'clock in the morning,” asked Jane. A confused expression was clearly imprinted on his face.

“Hmm. A three-month-old baby will wake up in the middle of the night hungry. It's a normal thing, yesterday-yesterday he was too,” Felix explained.

“Yesterday too?”

Oh, is Jane sleeping so well that she hasn't heard Aiden cry for a few nights? Wait, that means that for the last three nights Felix also woke up at this hour because Aiden was crying? He must be just as tired as he is.

Jane also realized that there was a can of formula, a bottle of milk and a flask on the nightstand next to Aiden's baby box when Felix said he would make it milk. It was definitely Felix who put it there, so there was no need to bother going down to the kitchen that was downstairs if you wanted to make milk for Aiden.

The milk business has been handled by Felix who is now making it. Jane immediately approached the baby box and calmed Aiden who was crying. “Felix, can you hurry a little? Aiden was crying so hard, I got worried.”

Felix who was pouring hot water from the flask into a milk bottle that had been filled with a quarter of milk powder turned his head for a moment. “Help him, it will make him calmer,” Felix replied as he turned his eyes back to the milk bottle in his hand.

Being ordered that way, Jane instantly raised Aiden's petite body carefully and hugged him. Jane stroked Aiden's back slowly, trying to make him calmer.

“He must have been very hungry to cry that hard,” Felix said again.

Aiden's cry was not as loud as before, it made Felix turn to look at Jane. Jane moved her body slowly while stroking Aiden's back in her arms. Unknowingly Felix smiled at the sight. If it's like this, Jane's motherly nature will be seen.

Slowly Felix approached Jane. He hints at Jane to take off her hug on Aiden. Now he drinks the milk he has made on Aiden who is in Jane's arms. Aiden looked calm and drank his milk voraciously. Felix stroked his forehead slowly, “Aiden, you must have been very hungry.”

...***...

Aiden was already back asleep after finishing his milk. Felix and Jane cannot go back to sleep. Jane sat at the dinner table, waiting for Felix to make her a cappuccino. The smell of coffee comes from the coffee maker. Jane thought again, is Felix really a barista?

Felix serves a glass of warm cappuccino in front of Jane, while a cup of latte is for himself. Felix immediately sipped the latte while watching Jane sitting opposite him. The girl just stared blankly at her cappuccino cup.

“What's wrong with you?”

Felix's words made Jane lift her face. “What?”

Felix took down his latten cup. “In the car earlier you also daydreamed. Are you thinking of something?” ask again. His eyes looked straight at Jane.

Jane just shook her head and raised her cappuccino glass.

“’What about me a barista?”

Jane almost choked, fortunately the coffee liquid had not yet come down her throat. Jane looked straight at Felix. The position of those who were staring at each other at this moment was the same as when they first met at the restaurant back then.

Can this guy really read his mind?

“You are disappointed that I am a barista,” Felix said again, but this time he did not stare at Jane. He lowered his head as his index finger touched the edge of his latten cup.

Jane shook her head strongly. “No, I just... confused.”.

Felix raised his face. “Bingung? Why?”

“I'm confused why Papa betrothed me to a barista when before he always betrothed me to. We don't need to talk about it. And I'm not disappointed that you're a barista, kok.”

Felix's lips clenched tightly and his eyes were still staring straight at Jane.

“And this cappuccino is delicious. Thank you,” Jane said again with a sweet smile on Felix.

That's when Jane saw it.

Jane saw clearly the man's lips were attracted a little. Yeah, Felix smiled a little bit.

Jane raised both her hands up. “Aahh.. I did not expect a baby would wake me at three in the morning.”

“That's. From now on we will often stay up.” Felix sipped his latten again. “When will you start working?”

...***...

“Jane, the water is ready.”

“Wait a minute.”

Jane still releases one by one Aiden shirt buttons that are lying on the mattress of the main room. Just let go of her diaper and Aiden is ready to take a shower. Jane carried him to Felix who was in the bathroom.

“You're going to bathe Aiden?” felix asked as Jane was measuring the heat of the water with her hand.

“Iya, why?” tell Jane and start lifting Aiden's body.

Jane was just about to put Aiden in the bathtub when Felix's hand got in the way.

“Wait, you sure?” asked Felix with a worried look.

“Calm down, Mama has taught me how to bathe Aiden,” Jane replied with a faint smile at Felix. Felix pulled back his hand and nodded slowly. Finally, half of Aiden's tiny body was submerged in warm water.

“Be careful,” Felix said once again.

Jane started bathing Aiden. He really did bathe her. His left hand held Aiden tightly while his right hand washed Aiden's body. He hinted Felix to pour baby bath soap on his hand, and Felix rushed to get the baby special soap. Jane soaked Aiden's entire body slowly, and Felix helped rinse the foam on Aiden's body. They work together even though Felix watches more and tells Jane to be careful.

Aiden soon finished his shower. Jane lifts Aiden's body and Felix swiftly retrieves the towel. Jane handed Aiden to Felix who had prepared a towel in his arms. She carried Aiden out of the bathroom and put him to bed. This time it was Felix's turn to put Aiden on the shirt.

Replace now Jane's watching Felix. Felix took the baby oil and poured it over his palm. He patted his hands and rubbed the oil into Aiden's stomach, his chest and then into Aiden's two tiny hands. She poured baby oil again and repeated the same thing and rubbed Aiden's legs from the thigh to the soles of the feet. Next he took the baby powder, put it on his palm and did the same thing as when wearing baby oil.

After that Felix put Aiden pampers, pants, then his underwear. Last time he wore a long-sleeved baby blue shirt. Felix was very careful when he wanted to put Aiden's tiny hand into the sleeve of the baby's shirt. Not to forget the appearance of Aiden sweetened with socks colored in line with his clothes on both legs.

“Wah, Mama's son is very handsome,” exclaimed Jane as soon as Felix finished dressing Aiden. Felix just smiled as he looked at Aiden who was also looking at the two of them.

“Ah, yes. I don't have a photo of Aiden on my phone.” Jane turned and walked towards the dresser to pick up the phone she had put there. Jane quickly returned and pointed the camera at Aiden who now looked smiling as if he understood himself in the photo. Felix retreated and stood behind Jane, watching the girl's phone screen and smiling at the funny picture.

After taking some photos, Jane sat herself down at the end of the bed and opened her social media account. He replaced his profile picture with Aiden's. Jane smiled with satisfaction at the new profile picture. She felt so happy as a proud mother to have a handsome son. Jane takes the focus off her phone and sees Felix taking Aiden to play in bed.

Aiden is seen watching Felix and laughs when Felix brings the little lion doll closer to Aiden's nose, making Jane smile to see him. Felix puffed his cheeks and covered his face as if he was playing hide-and-seek with Aiden. Jane's been watching him ever since he lived together, Felix would only act silly when it comes to Aiden. Aiden was heard laughing with gusto as Felix opened his face, so his legs were kicking too.

“Oh? Did Aiden just kick in?” jane said she couldn't believe it.

“Yes, a three-month-old baby can already kick. He was also able to reach for the toy in front of him,” Felix took another small doll and brought it closer while shaking it in front of Aiden's face. Jane is shocked when Aiden's hand is outstretched and tries to hold the doll.

“Wah, Mama's great son,” Jane reached out her hand and pinched her puff cheek gently.

Jane then stood up and lifted Aiden from the bed. He held her and gently swung Aiden in his carrier. But that made Aiden sleepy. Jane's index finger shuts Aiden's mouth that evaporated. “Aiden Darling, you are exhausted after playing with Papa, yes?”

Felix, who had gotten up from the bed and was walking towards the bathroom to hang a towel, turned his head when he heard Jane's words.

Papa's?

Right, now he's a father. He is Aiden's father.

Jane moved closer to the bed, Aiden was already asleep in her cradle. Jane placed Aiden on the bed carefully, then she put two bolsters on the left and right side of the tiny baby.

“Yeah, Aiden sleeps again.” Jane approached Felix who had just come out of the bathroom.

“Baby does sleep a lot. He can sleep up to fifteen hours a day,” Felix replied with a faint smile.

...***...

Jane is tired today. It felt like his entire body was crumbling at this moment. Approaching the end of the month is indeed the most important time because a lot of work must be completed in the office. He had to work late even though today was the first day he worked after marriage.

Once inside the apartment, Jane went straight up to the second floor to Aiden's room. Early in the morning he had left home because there was a sudden call from the office to come faster. Aiden was still asleep at the time.

Jane opens the door and is astonished to find Aiden's room empty. Felix usually sleeps on a single bed in Aiden's room. Jane also checked the baby box and did not find Aiden in it.

Where are the two of them?

Jane switched to the room opposite her. And sure enough, he found the two men sleeping on the bed. He sees Felix sleeping with his left arm holding Aiden tightly when there is a bolster around Aiden so that he does not fall. Aiden is also seen tilting his body and half hugging Felix. His little hand was on his papa's chest. Both of them fell asleep with peaceful faces. Jane stroked Aiden's head slowly, she missed Aiden so much all day.

Then his eyes observed the figure of the man beside Aiden. His face while sleeping was really like a child. Jane laughed softly. Yeah, this guy doesn't suck like this.

‘She must be tired of keeping Aiden all day.’

Unknowingly Jane's hand stretched out and revealed the hair covering the man's forehead. Really like a kid. Calm, peaceful and soothing. Also very handsome.

Ah, what the hell is he thinking. Looks like Jane's too tired to think things through. He should clean himself and go to sleep. Jane was about to get up when suddenly her arm was pulled, making her fall back on the bed. But now he is facing the man's face.

Did he wake her?

What's he gonna do?
